Availability: Normally ships the same day


To distinguish these very special ‘SHIKI Black Dragon Series High-End Custom’ knife “ from other SHIKI brand knives, Master Craftsman Mr. Masui has selected to use only the very best materials and has spent even more time to ensure that every production process, particularly the detailed hand finishing, is performed faultlessly.

To match the special matt-finish of VG-10 Damascus blade, Mr. Masui decided to use beautiful natural wood texture of Quince wood handle scales. Due to the restriction of importing the natural wood materials, Quince wood material is becoming more distinctive. The Quince Wood handle scales and the seamlessly welded stainless steel bolster are nicely hand contoured, for perfect balance and comfortable grip. A gorgeous decorative Mosaic Pins add an elegant accent and contrast nicely with the unique wood handle.The handle and the seamless stainless steel bolsters are contoured by hand so that they are comfortable to grip and are nicely accented by a decorative mosaic pin and a black & gold spacer.

The special matt finish and silver-gray coloring of the VG-10 Nickel Damascus blade (HRC 60 to 61).
